Long before the foreign concessions and skyscrapers, Shanghai was a prosperous Chinese town surrounded with protective walls and bustling with trade and commerce.
The Ancient Shanghai Tour takes you back in time to see what remains of Shanghai’s ancient past, including the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644AD) Yu Yuan Gardens and Taoist City God Temple.
And after the tour then why not try your hand at a spot of archery? That’s right, as an optional extra we offer you the chance to practice an art that played a central role in the life of ancient China’s literati and was once taught by the great philosopher Confucius.
Highlights:
- Meet outside exit 1 of Yu Yuan Metro Station (line 10).
- Walk through the bustling Yu Yuan Market and find out what people would have traded there in imperial times.
- Enter the stunning Yu Yuan Gardens, learn about the paradoxical aspirations of the man that commissioned it, and discover why it was not finished in time.
- Feed the beautiful carp of Yu Yuan Gardens with our fish food and hear the Chinese legend that explains the strange markings on their foreheads.
- Learn how to appreciate the sophisticated art of Ancient Chinese Gardens including their use of “feng shui”, “borrowing” and “representation”.
- Make a wish as we hand out lucky coins to throw into a wishing well that is said to have extraordinarily good feng shui.
- Admire the legendary Exquisite Jade Rock, and discover how it ended up in Yu Yuan Gardens despite being intended for an Emperor.
- Explore the bustling City God Temple, meet your personal Taoist protector, and learn how you yourself can become a god in China.
- Meet the leading figures in the Taoist pantheon including a god that used to cut peoples heads off with his Green Dragon Crescent Blade and a goddess that used to be a man.
